A place to sound off about movies, books, and politics, and the culture at large, and let's face it, whatever I feel like.

Writing Group

Welcome to my procrastination. Pull up a chair! Would you like a cracker?

I have my writing group next week, and I'm up. I'm sadly lost for what to workshop, as I don't have anything I feel is ready. I'm working on a story, but it's not ready. I've got some other things brewing, but nothing is feeling formed enough.

So, I went through my hard drive. Who knew I had written so much? A couple of specs I started, a couple of shorts, different forms of the same thing seeing which form fits best. It's interesting to be confronted with an old image I'd left behind. Now the words put it back in my head, but I'm still not sure what to do with it.

And themes - who knew I had themes? And possibly even a style. Not that I love it, but I think it's coming out. A voice.

Well, just wanted to check in. I guess I need to go work on that thing I didn't want to work on. Now in a much better place knowing I have a whole bunch of starts I could take up if I needed. That's a good feeling, right? That's a start.
